Renewable Radio - Misinformation On Solar Panels
Welcome to Renewable Radio, sponsored by The Hail Group. In this episode, we dive into the key factors consumers should consider when investing in solar panels, inverters, and batteries. With so many options available, it’s crucial to remember that higher quality often means better long-term value. For instance, while a more expensive system might seem like a bigger upfront investment, it can offer greater returns over time compared to cheaper alternatives that may require frequent replacements. We recommend panels with matching performance and product warranties, ideally 30 years for both, to ensure durability and efficiency. For inverters, the best warranties currently available are up to 12 years. Batteries, too, should come with robust warranties, ideally around 12 years and 8,000 cycles. Investing in high-quality components not only enhances system performance but can also add significant value to your property, with potential increases in property value ranging from 8 to 10%. By making informed choices, you can reduce your electricity costs and take control of your energy future.
